Instructions
- First make the dressing. Dry fry the coriander seeds over a medium heat until fragrant and a shade darker. Cool, then grind to a coarse powder. Put into a screwtop jar with all the remaining dressing ingredients and shake until evenly mixed. Check and adjust seasoning then set aside until needed.
- Pick over the rocket and discasrd any damaged leaves. Rinse thoroughly and dry. Store in a sealed plastic bag in the fridge.
- Shortly before serving put all the salad ingredients in a large bowl and toss with just enough dressing to coat without drowning. SErve straight from the bowl or divide equally between four plates, ensuring everyone gets their fair share of prawns and olives.
